When Using DVD-RAM Disks
To write a file to a DVD-RAM disk, logical formatting is required.
It is possible to write a file to a logically formatted DVD-RAM disk in the same way as writing
to a floppy disk or hard disk.
For details, refer to [start] - [All Programs] - [DVD-RAM] - [DVD-RAM Driver] - [Using DVD-
RAM disc].
NOTE
z If you write using B's Recorder, because the format is different, it will no longer be
possible to write using applications other than B's Recorder. To enable writing, physi-
cal formatting is required. (Î page 78)
Logical formatting type
There are two types of formatting for DVD-RAM disks: UDF (Universal Disk Format) and
FAT32.
We recommend that you choose the formatting type depending on the application.
z UDF1.5
This is the standard format type for DVD-RAM. Data can be transferred between different
operating systems. Data with large file sizes (images or audio data) can be read and writ-
ten at high speed. We recommend this format when using DVD-RAM for storing data.
z UDF2.0
This format is designed to be used with DVD Video recorders that use the DVD Forum’s
video recording standard.
z FAT32 format
*1
• This is the additional format type on Windows 95 (OSR2) / Windows 98 / Windows Me /
Windows 2000 / Windows XP.
